Yes, that's right - an Indian single malt. Funny? Jim Murray was laughing all the way back to the bar for another dram. He gives it a solid 97 points and declares it "one of the great whiskies found anywhere in the word this year" (Whisky Bible 2010). The Malt Maniacs awarded it "Best Natural Cask whisky" in the Daily Drams Category and it earned a silver medal overall at the Malt Maniacs Awards 2009.
The name 'Fusion' refers to the malt from which it is made. 25% Scottish and 75% Indian barley is combined to make this wonderful single malt.
"It is one of those which command a big mouthful, a chair with a headrest
and silence. You will chew for seemingly hours and never quite get to the bottom of its mystical complexity. It is massive whisky, but its genius is that you get the feeling that there is some almost invisible element keeping the malt together so the proportions are never less than perfect."
-Jim Murray - Whisky Bible 2010
Colour : Golden Yellow
Nose : Smells like just emptied barrel with sharp notes interwined with light vanilla, oak and hint of peat and fruit-oak taking the lead.
Taste : Predominant oak congeners fused with hint of smoky touch which unfold over palate although late.
Finish : Strong malt with excellent finish oak, fruit and peat with a hint of dryness.
